Your support makes a difference

Arthritis SA exists to create a brighter, healthier, more mobile future for people with arthritis through education and funding of medical research.
We can’t do it without generous donations, enthusiastic volunteers and fundraising.

Arthritis SA relies on the support of the community to help fund its services and to contribute to research grants.

It is through the generosity, commitment, and support from the community that we are able to ensure that our services and programs are delivered and maintained in the future. You can help us to help others by becoming involved today!

Make a bequest

A bequest is a gift that keeps on giving long after you are able to do so personally. It is the ultimate, selfless gift.

Supporter

Becoming a supporter is one of the most valuable contributions you can make to your self-management and knowledge about arthritis.

It ensures you receive information about research at the cutting edge of arthritis treatments. It also gives you open access to our health educators during business hours and entry into one or more of our support groups. You can even attend any of our courses at no charge.

Fundraising & volunteering

Arthritis SA plays an important role in the lives of those affected by arthritis by providing support, educational services, information resources, and promoting and funding research that we hope will find a cure.

Anyone wishing to volunteer will be asked to have a Police History Check undertaken, at no cost, and will be required to adhere to Arthritis SA’s policies and procedures.
